Played here 1/19/19 with a 7:35 am tee time with a friend. We got paired up with 2 others. First off, course was way too wet still and very muddy. We found ourselves tip toeing through the fairways so we wouldnt sink in the mud. Give this course at least a week to dry out a bit. Pace of play was slow at 5 hours.

Played here 1/19/19 with a 7:35 am tee time with a friend. We got paired up with 2 others. First off, course was way too wet still and very muddy. We found ourselves tip toeing through the fairways so we wouldnt sink in the mud. Give this course at least a week to dry out a bit. Pace of play was slow at 5 hours. Mainly because the two men we were paired up with were extremely slow golfers. Luckily the group behind us were walkers so we didnt get pushed. Greens are perfect here! Best part of the course. Tee boxes were in great condition and level! Fairways were green but like i said had a lot of mud and patchiness to them. Rough was basically non existent, you're either on grass in the fairway or clovers and sticks in the rough. Water was clean, saw the cart girl once. Staff was friendly and paid $50.35 for the green fee. Overall it's a good rate and a good course. People do need to start repairing their ball marks on the greens. My friend and I fixed 19 of them in 18 holes!» Close

Had the great pleasure to play here 1/20/19. Once the sun broke through weather was normal Ojai great. Tees can be a little unlevel and thin, but thats why you put it on a tee.
Fairways were a little muddy not much roll if any, but otherwise in very good winter shape.
Rough was short but still wet and sticky. It did affect your game a little. Sand is awesome.

I was in one and it hit the face and buried. That means they have quite a bit of sand in them lol. The greens are darn near perfect. Little soft from rains but quite fast and well
maintained. If you have never been here before go go now. This course has a little bit of everything. Good layout tremendous greens that are a blast to pay. It has great weather beautiful views and very friendly people.» Close

Played mid morning on the threat of rain but weather held out and it was actually warm out for most of the round. Wind came up the last few holes to cool things off. Course was almost completely empty. There were only a 2-3 other groups out. Greens were in fantastic shape.

Played mid morning on the threat of rain but weather held out and it was actually warm out for most of the round. Wind came up the last few holes to cool things off. Course was almost completely empty. There were only a 2-3 other groups out. Greens were in fantastic shape. Early greens were a bit damp from recent rain but they dried out about 5 holes in and started rolling at a medium-fast pace. As I mentioned before, greens at Hunter have modest slope with predictable breaks. A good test of skills but nothing to overwhelm a seasoned golfer.

Tee boxes were level and lush. Fairways were average. A few thin/wet areas along with some dormant grass throughout but decent lies for the most part. Sand traps have nice sand in them (or at least the one trap I was in did).

Hunter Ranch is always a fun track. It offers numerous elevation changes throughout with forced carries over water and gullies mixed in for add enjoyment. Weekend prices are a little pricey but that's the nature of the beast.» Close
